Unfiltered Autistic Podcast

The Unfiltered Autistic Podcast, hosted by Amanda McGuinness, explores Autism, Persistent Drive for Autonomy (PDA), neurodiversity, education, communication, sensory processing, regulation, and inclusive practice through honest conversations with leading researchers, clinicians, educators, and Autistic voices.

Each episode is grounded in neuroaffirmative principles and combines evidence-informed discussion with lived experience to provide practical insights for parents, educators, professionals, and organisations. Topics include Autism identification, PDA, executive functioning, school inclusion, burnout, communication, emotional wellbeing, family life, and the latest thinking in neurodiversity-affirming practice.

Whether you are supporting an Autistic child, working within education or healthcare, or seeking to deepen your understanding of Autism, the Unfiltered Autistic Podcast offers accessible, thought-provoking conversations that challenge outdated perspectives and promote respectful, strengths-based support.

Browse the latest episodes, discover expert interviews, and continue your professional and personal learning through meaningful conversations that place Autistic voices and contemporary research at the centre.
